UPPLANDS-VASBY, SWEDEN COOKING APPARATUS Application filed October 24,1927, Serial No.

This invention has for its object the pro vision of an improved cookingapparatus comprising a fuel receptacle, a burner adapted to be enclosedin a box or the like which is preferably provided with a swingable lid,the fuel receptacle being so arranged that it may be moved relatively tothe box, to enclose the same in the box or outside the same, so that thereceptacle, when the apparatus is in use,

may be freely exposed in its latter position to the surrounding air, andthereby cooled by the air.

An embodiment of the invention isillustrated in the annexed drawing,where Figure 1 is a plan view of the cooking apparatus, the lid beingswung upwards and the receptacle being swung outwards,

Figure 2 is a vertical section on the line A to A of Figure 1,

Figure 3 is a vertical section of the apparatus, the lid being swungdownwards and the receptacle being swung inwards.

In the drawing 1 is the box provided with a swingablelid 2, 3 is thefuel receptacle and e the two burners to be enclosed in the box. In theshown embodiment one side 5 of the box is adapted to be let down and hason its inner face two supports 6 in which the receptacle 3 is detachablyand swingably mounted, for the purpose that, when the said side is letdown, the receptacle may be carried with it, whereby the receptacle getsoutside'the box 1 and may be freely encircled by the surrounding air.The burners 4 which are firmly connected with the receptacle 3 by theconduct-pipes 7 8 get a reciprocating motion in the box 1 when the side5 is folded up and down. In order to maintain the burners in theirrespective extremepositions hooks 9 are provided at the bottom of thebox which grasp the conduct-pipe 7 in both extreme positions of same butthe said hooks do not prevent the burners and the receptacle from beingswung upwards into the desired position nor from being removed, forexample at the cleaning of the box when the burners are in their middleposition. The said hooks also serve to facilitate the mounting of theburners and the conduct-pipes. On the side of the fuel receptacle 3facing the burners 4.- there 228,358, and in Sweden September 28, 1927.

is a protecting plate 10 provided with long notches 11 extending inwardsfrom the edges of same through which the screw spindles 12 extendingfrom the burners pass. The said notches serve as supports for the screwspindles and also serve to facilitate the mounting of the burners. Abase plate 13 for the boiling vessels is provided in the box 1 in aswingable and detachable manner and is adapted to be moved into and outof supporting position, the said base plate being shaped in such amanner that the fuel receptacle may be swung relatively to the boxwithout the base plate being swung out of its supporting position.Further, the lid 2 of the box'has on its inner face two swingablescreens 14 adapted to form a wind-protection for the burners when thelid is swung upwards and the screens are swung outwards (Figure 2) Thelid is provided with a swingable hook15 (Figure by which the screens maybe kept close to the lid when the same is folded down.

Having now described my invention, what I claim as new and desire tosecure by Letters Patent is:

1. Cooking apparatus comprising a box, a member forming one side of thebox. hinged thereto and arranged to be opened and closed, a receptaclefor liquid fuel mounted on said hinged member and movable therewith intoand out of the box, a burner arranged in the box, a fuel pipe wherebysaid burner is connected to and movable with and by said receptacle, anda protector plate also mounted on saidbox member and arranged at theside of'the receptacle nearest the box.

2. Cooking apparatus as claimed in claim 1, including also means tolimit the extent of movement of the burner in the box and permit'theremoval of the burner from the box.

In witness whereof, I have hereunto signed my name.

CARL VICTOR CARLSSON.
